4 Reasons To Invest In A Winter Tire Package

Maximize Performance

With tires that can stand up to the elements, you can increase your car’s performance during the winter. The better traction you have, the better your car is going to perform overall. Winter tires give your car grip on the road when there is snow, ice, or other impediments. In addition, the traction you get with winter tires allows you to control the car easier. You don’t have to worry about revving the engine nearly as much when you have great traction.

Improve Stopping

One of the biggest concerns in winter conditions is that stopping can take too long. If you hit a patch of ice or snow and have to stop quickly, either because others are stopped in front of you or because of a stoplight, you may be in trouble. Luckily, with winter tires, you can cut your stopping distance by up to 30 feet. While that may not seem like a lot, in an emergency situation, it can be the difference between a clean stop and an accident. Having dealer-issued winter tires can improve your stopping distance even more, depending on the make and model of your vehicle.

Longer Life of Tires

When you go to a dealership and get their winter tire package, you’re going to improve the life of your all-season tires and the winter tires both. Switching the tires out allows you to cut down on how much you wear down the traction. While it may seem obvious to some, switching the tires on your car for the season is a great way to save money in the long run and keep your tires going longer. Many all-season tires also aren’t made to withstand the sand and salt used in winter months, so they break down more easily during the winter.

Better Durability

Winter tires are made with different specs in mind than all-season tires. Because of this, the durability of winter tires is better in cold months. In fact, if you’re using all-season tires, you may find that the tire pressure goes down when it gets cold. This is because they simply aren’t made to withstand the cold temperatures. Winter tires are made to withstand the cold, and so you’re less likely to blow a tire simply because it lost pressure. This is one of the big reasons to consider winter tire packages, even if you live in an area that doesn’t see a lot of snow.

All in all, getting winter tires for your car may seem like an extra expense; however, it’s one well worth the cost. You’ll improve your drive, save your all-season tires from unneeded damage, and help with the safety of your drive.
